A couple have been left confused and shocked after a note was pushed through their door asking them to close the curtains when they are getting dressed.

Karin Stone, 33, and her husband Jay, 34, arrived home one day to find that a 'concerned' neighbour had decided to act on the fact that they could see through the windows of the pair's home in Lemington, Newcastle.

The note said: "Would you please close your blinds when getting dressed or undressing.

"We are sick of seeing big bums, big boobs and little willy and we will report you both for indecent exposure.

"Your neighbours."

That's one way of asking, I guess.

Needless to say, the couple weren't best pleased to be told off about this, you'd have to imagine that the 'little willy' comment didn't go down too well.

They reacted by putting up their own note in the window of their house. It read: "STOP LOOKING THROUGH OUR WINDOWS YOU PEEPING TOM.

"YOUR NEIGHBOURS"

That all seems fair enough. Surely if there is one place you're allowed to be naked, it's in your own house?

Karin said: "On Friday I travelled down to Norwich and my husband said 'you will never believe it, we have got a note through the door'.

"He read out the note from the neighbours and I was like 'what the hell', I thought 'why have you been peeping in my window anyway?'.

"We don't stand at the window and dance or anything. He thought it was a wind up at first, he said surely no one would be that ridiculous.

"But from the handwriting it looks like an older person has written it.

"'I was shocked. If they knocked on my door I would have said 'I'm sorry' - but if they are that much of a prude, they have gone into quite a description."

Luckily, the couple can see the funny side of things, even if it has made them look at their neighbours in a slightly different light - they don't know exactly who sent the letter.

Karin continued: "I think it is really funny, in particular how they describe my husband as having a little willy. It was quite offensive, I thought 'how dare you?'."

She also said that the war could yet rumble on for longer, they have had no response back from the mystery letter poster. It remains to be seen how they will react to being called a peeping Tom.

Karin added: "I am either going to get somebody knock on the door or we might have a war of notes. This might be an ongoing thing."
